A buzzer-beating three-pointer from Damian Lillard earned the Portland Trail Blazers a place in the second round of the NBA play-offs as his side clinched a narrow 118-115 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The point guard amassed a play-off career-high 50 points but the night will no doubt be remembered for the last-gasp 37ft shot which sent his team into the Western Conference semi-finals.
